CA much lower than reasonable.

I am working on a case that is giving me answers I don't believe. The CFx value I'm getting out of SU2 is about 2.6. Using the rule of thumb of a Cd value of ~2 and calculating the CFx value given the largest cross-sectional area and Sref values, the Cfx should be closer to 13. Can you please take a look at my input file and see if there is some glaring error that I'm missing?
Thank you.
